Home Tuina Treatment for Myopia

Myopia is a disease characterized by clear vision up close and blurred vision at a distance. Mild to moderate myopia has no symptoms other than clear vision up close and blurred vision at a distance. In addition, children with moderate to severe myopia may experience starry eyes, eye fatigue, dry eyes, and even strabismus or amblyopia. Pseudomyopia refers to the inability of the ciliary muscle to adjust the refractive power of the lens due to excessive eye use and constant tension, and the symptoms can be relieved or disappear after rest. However, if you do not pay attention to your eye habits at this time, the refraction of the lens will change and the focus will shift forward, becoming true myopia. According to Chinese medicine, this disease is mostly due to congenital deficiency of liver and kidneys and deficiency of essence and blood; acquired overuse of eyes and depletion of essence and blood; and insufficient generation of essence and blood due to partial eating. Myopia occurs when the eyes are not nourished with enough essence and blood. The treatment principle of Tui Na therapy is to relax the meridians and channels, relieve spasm and brighten the eyes, nourish blood and fill essence.
